Frank Reich confirms: Rookie Jonathan Taylor is the team's starting running back.

Nyheim Hines will still very much be involved.

Did not expect John Ross to be the receiver who led the Bengals in snaps (84%). Tyler Boyd next at 81%. A.J. Green at 66%.

Mike Thomas/Auden Tate/Tee Higgins all with 22% each.

Disappointing no targets for Higgins.

Anthony Lynn said the new scheme — primarily the increased QB and pocket movement — will limit check downs to RBs, including Austin Ekeler, who only had one target Sunday. But he said it's still a priority to get Ekeler touches moving forward. #Chargers

Dallas Goedert receiving in Week 1:

9 targets
8 catches
101 receiving yards
28 yards after contact
3 catches of 15+ yards
3 missed tackles forced All most among TEs

This is interesting.

That doesn't sound ideal for fantasy.

Nope and I own Ekeler in my most important league.

WR Golden Tate (hamstring) will be inactive Monday night vs. Steelers, per source. He was listed as questionable. Need to make sure it’s not something that lingers. There’s another 15 games. Daniel Jones waits yet again to have all his weapons on the field for at least one snap.

Ertz in a contract battle with Roseman and the Eagles makes this interesting

Gronk is the new blocker. OJ is apparently now the receiving TE. Arians has again forgotten himself

That was my first thought too and is why I shared it. I doubt anyone is worried about Tate right now.

Yep. Engram lines up in slot and he’s a matchup nightmare

Haven’t seen this posted yet

Prior to Sunday, Mark Andrews had never played more than 57% of Ravens’ snaps. He was in on 71% (including a 73.1% slot rate) in a game Baltimore benched their starters in the final quarter.

Andrews has taken a good chunk of the Hurst snaps. Finna eat

49ers TE George Kittle has a knee sprain. Kyle Shanahan said we'll see how he is on Wednesday and as the week goes on before knowing his status for this week.
